Anniversary Card

It’s been awhile since I have shared a card tutorial, so I wanted to share my Anniversary Card! (Spoiler alert, Don!) This was one of my fair cards, but for the life of me I can’t remember if I won anything for it or not. I think Dee stole this ribbon away from me, but it was well-deserved! While this card looks difficult, it is rather easy. The most difficult part is getting the brads in the paper! I promise!

Supplies:

6 x 12″ beige card stock

5.75″ x 5.75″ dark wood-grain printed paper

1″ strips of varying lengths

4.5 x 2.75″ dark wood-grain printed paper

3.5 x 1.75″ lighter wood-grain paper

2.75 x 1.75″ beige card stock

letter tiles to spell LOVE

4 mini brads

3 flowers

2 buttons

Directions:

Fold 6 x 12″ card stock in half. Crease well.

Adhere the 5.75″ x 5.75″ wood grain paper on the card.

Using your scissors, create a ‘V’ on the ends of the 1″ strips. Round tops of strips, if desired. Adhere to front of card in a pleasing arrangement.

Add the brads to the corners of the 4.5 x 2.75″ wood grain paper. Adhere to front of card as shown.
